Bonnie,

How are you using the XML string returned from the Web Service?

If I remember correctly, I had a difficult time converting the XML string into a FoxPro cursor. I think the main issue was with the length of string fields. Foxpro wants to work with a fixed length string so I had to extract some metadata information from SQL Server to get the defined field size. Just wondering is anyone has come up with an easier way to do this.
